Sasumata

Okay, so a Sasumata is like a really long stick with prongs at the end. It’s a tool that samurai warriors used in old Japan to capture criminals or keep people safe during protests.

Imagine you’re playing a game of catch with a friend, but instead of a ball, you have a Sasumata. You throw the stick to your friend, who can then catch it by grabbing onto the prongs at the end.

Now, let’s say you’re trying to catch a bad guy who’s running away. You can use the Sasumata to catch them around the neck or arm, basically trapping them so they can’t get away. It’s like a really long arm that can reach far and help you capture someone without hurting them too much.

The Sasumata is a powerful tool, but it requires a lot of skill and training to use properly. And now you know what it is!
